result in the three districts which by
an unfortunate chance elected demo-

culiar combination of circumstances
not likely to recur in century, of a
personal character, which determined
the results. There is not "A particle

THE SCHOOL CONVENTION.

The convention called to meet at
Melroseson Friday, Esd inst, will be
an important one in many respects.
An organization can be formed, and
should be, which will have far more
than local Specification. There are
some, features in the present school
laws which ought to be looked after,
and which if properly handled would
make such contentious as that at
Melrose practically impossible. Under
the present system of eiecting county
superintendent, the office is almost
inevitably mixed up with party poll
tics Some method should be de-
vised for the selection of Superlntend
ent which shall raise that office above
partsanship. This district has de-
clared that the judiciary is nonpo-
litical-so should the public schools
be.
The duration of the school term in
any one year should be graded IN
different districts by a compulsory
minimum of duration, and that OF
sufficient length to afford adequate
instruction.
There are other questions OF equal
Importance which will be presented,
but even if nothing more than as
above indicated be accomplished the
convention will have vindicated the
necessity of its existence.
The Sank Centre HERALD of last
week made a most disgusting specta-

purposes. 1t is safe to say that not
one man in Sank Cantre other than
Mr.. Hendryy approves or believes a
word of the outrageous eXcrement.
Mr.. Ill. mas fallen into the habit of
using opiam and morphine and is
next door to insanity at times and
wholly irresponsible for the disgrace
he brings upon his town and profes-
sion.-St., Cloud Tribune.
The HERALD is not the owner of a
brass monkey, but if it were, and the
brazen image didn't crack smile at
the above specimen of peurile men
dacity, It would get exposed to the
next polar wave until its ears frOzc
off. Now, really, Mr.. Tribune, it
would be work Of supererogation
to attempt to injure your private
character, for if you ever had one,
you have saved the HERALD the
trouble. Whatever "outragous eXcre-
ment' may mean, there is not Il man,
woman or child of years Of descre-
ton but endorses every word of an
article of slightly personal char
acter which appeared in the HERALD
Of TWO weeks since, not only in Sank
Centre, but wherever else the
Tribune's unsaVory record is known
And as for the opium, morphine and
insanity clause, it is as truthful as
the Tribune is ever expected to at:
tempt to be-. The fact is that the
editor Of the HERALD never, even
for medical purposes, tasted opium
in any of its forms during his life,
and SO far as his sanity is concerned
the article referred to sufficiently
attests chat.

HIS llIS.
The next morning, when Bernardino
entered the studio, the marble woman,
the now famous Queen of the Lilies,
seemed to smile down upon him from
her pedestal. A second glance disclosed
to him that her hair, eyes and lips, all
of which had been colorleSS marble the
night before, were now full of the color
of life. He touched her hand, and her
fingers, all warm and trembling,
closed over his. Thrilled and stirred,
in a way that was new and be-
wildering to him. he raised her
beautiful hand to his lips. Then the
woman stepped down from the pedestal
and knelt at his feet. The wreath of
lilies caught in her drapery, and falling
as she knelt, was broken in two. Her
fingers were still claSped about his hand,
and pulling him forward until his face
was on a level with hers, she raised her
lips and kissed him.
Il am the lily queen," she said. "She
who came to you lii dream, implOring
you to release her from the marble block
which held her imprisoned in the North
ern mountains. You have made me a
woman once more, and as reward, |
am all yours
He believed her and they were mar
ried. Many who saw her also believed,
but many more doubted. At last all but
TornellO swOre that she was only the
lovely wanton from the Roman wine
room, who made ladder of Bernardo
nos fancy by which she climbed into
better life. Tornello never would be-
lieve this, and Bernardino never knew
that it was said. Yet. when he met her,
all his art died within him and love
came in its place.
-. Years afterwards, when he was dead,
they placed his broken wreath of lilies
on his tomb.

ferent number Inscribed on It. The
band is slipped over the pigeons foot as
soon as it is hatched, and so rapidly do
the birds grow that in eight days the
band could neither be removed, or a
similar one put on. Yet, it's never too
small for the leg, and i'm no way does it
act to the discomfort of the flyer. Speak
ing of the general subject of pigeon
flying, Mrs. Starr said:
II think you would be surprised If
you knew how many people keep birds
for the actual work of carrying mes
Sages. A great many men in all of the
large cities take birds with them to the
when they have occasion to send word
home, they attach message to the
pigeon and release it. But | suppose
that the principal incentive to the culti-
vation of message birds is for racing.
Although young birds, those Matched
within the year, often make good
records. am inclined to think that a
pigeon does not become fully mature
until it is 10 years old. They then seem
to have the maximum of sense and
speed. In this country we have a great
deal of trouble with hunters. If they
would only let the birds alone, we should
lose very few from any other causes.
Pigeons are on record that have won
races at the age of 20. In Belgium Il
great deal of attention is paid to flying,
and the birds are highly cultivated and
live to considerable age"

good race birds?"
NO; but previous to each racing sea-
son the birds are trained by making
practice short distance tlys. They are
taken ten miles or so from home and
then liberated. This kind of training is
just beginning in preparation for the
